The University Psychiatric Hospital Vrapče is the biggest and the oldest psychiatric hospital in the country. In the hospital all the psychiatric problems can be treated, in all of the therapeutic approaches and techniques.
In the University Psychiatric Hospital Vrapče, patients with sexual problems, gender issues and paraphilias can be treated in an outpatient setting. This outpatient clinic works three days a week. The patients are treated with combined pharmacotherapy and psychotherapy. The specific techniques of sexual therapy are employed to work with this specific group of patients. The preferred mode of treatment is couple (partner) therapy, but also individual therapy is used. The patients are adults (age 18 and above), referred by their general practitioners.
Psychiatrists and a psychologist are working with these patients, and we have a close communication with an endocrinologist working in a general hospital near the Vrapče hospital.
Visit to other departments in the hospital is also possible.
